Ritzema, Randall S.Frelat, RomainDouxchamps, SabineSilvestri, SilviaRufino, Mariana C.Herrero, Mario T.Giller, Ken E.López Ridaura, SantiagoWijk, Mark T. van[What works where for which farm household: Estimated effects of different interventions on food availability across household distributions in East and West Africa]What works where for which farm household: Estimated effects of different interventions on food availability across household distributions in East and West Africa

The role of livestock in nitrogen cycling in mixed crop-livestock farming systems of sub-Saharan Africa was explored. Cattle were fed a range of diets to investigate the effects on partitioning of nitrogen between urine and faeces and on the chemical composition of the manures produced. The trade...


Delve, Robert J.Cadisch, GeorgTanner, J.C.Thorpe, W.R.Thorne, Peter J.Giller, Ken E.[Implications of livestock feeding management on soil fertility in the smallholder farming systems of sub-Saharan Africa]Implications of livestock feeding management on soil fertility in the smallholder farming systems of sub-Saharan Africa

Western Kenya is one of Africa’s most densely populated rural areas, characterised by intensive smallholder crop–livestock systems on degraded lands managed with small inputs of mineral fertiliser and animal manure. Competing uses for crop residues and other organic resources often results in poo...


Castellanos-Navarrete, A.Tittonell, Pablo A.Rufino, Mariana C.Giller, Ken E.[Feeding, crop residue and manure management for integrated soil fertility management—A case study from Kenya]Feeding, crop residue and manure management for integrated soil fertility management—A case study from Kenya

Due to inadequate feed supplies for livestock production, farmers throughout the tropics and sub-tropics are being encouraged to supplement low quality basal diets with leguminous forage and concentrates. The varying quality (e.g. nitrogen, lignin and polyphenol content) of these diets will influ...


Delve, Robert J.Tanner, J.C.Kimani, S.Giller, Ken E.Cadisch, GeorgThorne, Peter J.[The effects of feed nitrogen and polyphenol levels on the fate of ingested nitrogen in steers and their implications for nitrogen cycling in mixed farming systems]The effects of feed nitrogen and polyphenol levels on the fate of ingested nitrogen in steers and their implications for nitrogen cycling in mixed farming systems
